GERMAN WORLD WAR I "FELDPOST" POSTCARDS

Fine collection of photo and illustrated post cards, as well as post cards without images and transmittal envelopes, approx. 150 pieces in all, the majority sent as "Feldpost", or German military mail, during World War I. Of these, 37 depict German soldiers in uniform, either individual or group portraits, in both studio settings and in the field. A further 26 show soldiers in military hospitals, with nurses, wearing hospital uniforms, or confined to hospital beds. Additional examples feature military, naval and patriotic images. The balance are "Feldpostkartes", bearing no images but the majority completed and stamped, often with the sender's regimental designation. All are war-date, and undoubtedly contain much good, personal content, however not translated by us. All show expected wear, else very good. Should be seen.
